There was no distinction between day and night in the snow cave. By the time Qianyue woke up, it was already 02:10:23.
“…”
If the third day hadn't been written in front of the time, she would have almost thought she had slept for a century.
She slowly sat up from the thatch. Perhaps it was because of the increased indoor temperature, but Qianyue felt that the rate of decrease in her various numerical values had slowed down a lot.
She opened the character list and saw that the [Frostbite] status had been lifted.
Name: Qianyue
Occupation: Beggar
Level: 1
Health: 78/100
Stamina: 59/100 [Hunger]
Spirit value: 63/80
Qianyue forgot to check her condition before going to bed last night, but fortunately, because she kept warm, her stats didn't drop much after she slept.
She thought, "It seems that we may not need so many supplies to get through this."
Qianyue brought all the status indicators above the 80 green line and re-checked her supplies:
Black bread x8, isatis root x7, mental suppressant x9, blueprint (barbecue) x1, blueprint (bandage) x1, item fragment (meat) x5, thatch x3, firewood x3, secret food x1, and 600 yen.
Qianyue always knows how to use the items in the backpack, so the one she drew today should be a mental suppressant.
As can be seen from the probability of the lottery pool, mental suppressants are relatively scarce.
If other people got it, they would be very happy, but Qianyue spent most of the time sleeping and was in good spirits, so she basically didn't need this thing.
She sighed, "It would be better to give me some bread or something."
Neuroleptics: ...
Judging from the current situation, the props in Qianyue Warehouse are sufficient for the time being, and there are no signs of damage in the snow cave.
"Do you want to go out..." Although Qianyue said this, she didn't want to move at all.
The laziness strikes again.
She thought that since it was already halfway through the day, she simply gave up the idea of going out. She just went out to pick up some props left by the wild wolf at her doorstep, and then retreated into her snow cave before she got frostbite again.
The huge temperature difference between front and back almost made people give up resistance instantly.
Today is also a day I don’t feel like working hard.jpg
Looking at the darkness before her, Qianyue muttered, "I still have to go find the Duobao merchant in a couple of days to buy a flint and steel."
Otherwise, if she stayed in this dark and safe environment for a long time, she would easily commit...
Sleepy.
Qianyue fell asleep again.
On the fourth day of the game, the snow was falling more and more heavily, almost to the point where you couldn't see the road with your hand out.
Qianyue walked in the snow, one step deep and one step shallow, using a branch to explore the way while carefully clearing the footprints behind her.
A gust of cold wind blew over, and she shivered subconsciously.
"This is too cold..."
In the past, Qianyue would never go out in such weather.
It's not just because of the cold.
The new snow is not that thick, and heavy snow that blinds the eyes can easily cause many dangers.
But considering the supply difficulties in the next few days, she had to go out to find the Duobao merchant.
Qianyue didn't know if there were other towns nearby, so she could only rely on her memory to go to the previous village.
As soon as I reached the entrance of the village, I saw several groups of people rushing into the village.
"Hurry up! Otherwise they'll be sold out in no time!"
"Why are you pushing? I was here first!"
Qianyue's eyes lit up. It seemed that she had really encountered the right person!
But there were so many people coming to buy things that the merchant Duobao was blocked at the door before he could even enter the village.
A group of people were pushing and shoving, and the surrounding NPCs cautiously took a detour when seeing this.
Some players on the periphery even stood on tiptoe to see what was going on inside.
Qianyue looked around for a moment, then walked over and patted a player on the shoulder in a familiar manner.
"Brother, the money is lost."
The man subconsciously turned around and asked: "Where did it fall?!"
Qianyue took the opportunity to squeeze in and attracted the attention of several people in the same way.
After a while, amidst the clamor of "Don't push, don't push" and "Make way", a few sudden shouts of curses were heard.
"Fuck you!"
“I want to buy something!”
As soon as Qianyue finished speaking, a pop-up window appeared in front of her.
Qianyue took a quick look and found that the items on the shelves were not categorized, but there was everything from tools to food, and the prices were not too expensive.
At the same time, there is a number marked in the lower right corner of each small icon, and this number is constantly decreasing.
Wow, it’s indeed limited supply.
Qianyue didn't dare to hesitate any longer and quickly bought the flint.
Then she bought ten portions of brown bread and ten portions of isatis root - it wasn't that she didn't want to buy more, but she just couldn't get enough.
A group of people went shopping together, and the basic supplies were sold out in the blink of an eye, leaving only gray boxes and the two big words "Out of stock".
So Qianyue chose [Seasoning] as a second choice. She remembered that someone mentioned before that this thing can be used to make food without synthetic stones, but the effect is not that good.
As for the two products, mental suppressants and synthetic stones, they had been sold out before Qianyue arrived, and there was not even a trace of them.
The same goes for tools. Things like daggers and axes are still snatched up no matter how expensive they are. Even dental floss is snatched away.
Qianyue looked around a bit but didn't find the backpack and clothes she wanted, so she ended up buying a bundle of ropes and an oil lamp.
The 600 yen in the novice gift package was immediately spent.
The moment the transaction was completed, the people behind her squeezed up and pushed her aside!
"Women are such a hassle when it comes to shopping! They take so long!"
Qianyue turned around suddenly when she heard that and clenched her fists immediately, but at this time the people behind her also squeezed forward and quickly pushed her out of the crowd.
"Hey, make way, make way, don't get in the way!"
Qianyue took a deep breath and decided not to argue with the idiot. She grabbed her backpack and prepared to leave when someone approached her and called out to her mysteriously.
"Want to buy weapons?"
Qianyue turned around and saw that it was a player.
Seeing that she didn't say anything, the stall owner immediately understood and pulled her into the alley next to her.
There was an NPC in the alley who was secretly opening the window to get some fresh air. When he saw someone sneaking in, he was so scared that he immediately slammed the window shut.
Qianyue stopped at the entrance of the alley, unwilling to go in. "Let's talk here. What weapon?"
Seeing her on guard, the stall owner didn't mind. "This thing of mine is really good, a heavyweight weapon! It's absolutely sharp, and it can kill instantly..."
Qianyue turned around and walked out.
The stall owner quickly called out: "Hey, don't worry, take it out, take it out."
The stall owner probably didn't have enough time to flatter himself and was worried that he wouldn't be able to sell the goods, so he looked a little unhappy.
But after seeing what he took out, Qianyue instantly became interested.
It's an ice pick (cuan1).
This thing is straight, half stick and half triangular pike, with a plastic handle at the end. It looks like a deformed version of a spear, but is much heavier than a spear.
It is indeed a heavy, large, and high-grade weapon.
The stall owner tried to struggle, then said mysteriously, "I bought this from Duobao Merchant on the first day the server was launched. I can guarantee that this item is absolutely rare and will be unavailable for sale in the next few days."
When Qianyue heard what he said, she knew that the other party had no idea what the ice pick was used for and was trying to find someone with a lot of money to sell it to.
She asked expressionlessly, "Why don't you keep it for yourself?"
Without thinking, the stall owner said, "I have something better."
A metal tool costs at least 400 yen, and the money in the novice gift pack is not enough to buy two weapons.
This person didn't think at all when he answered, and it was obvious that he was in a hurry to get rid of the problem.
The stall owner said: "This thing is really sharp. It can stab wolves and fish with one stab. If you don't believe me, just touch it, just touch it!"
The stall owner said as he pushed the item towards Qianyue, who dodged it. She was probably much more familiar with using an ice pick than this guy, even harpooning wolves.
"How much?"
The stall owner tried to test the waters: "How much do you want to sell it for?"
Qianyue was silent for a moment: "...a piece of black bread."
The stall owner slapped his thigh and said, "You're too shameless! Such a good weapon, don't ask for such a high price!"
He made an eight gesture and Qianyue turned and left.
"Don't go!"
"Six! Oh no, five!"
In the end, the two men completed the transaction with two pieces of brown bread and two portions of isatis root.
The stall owner probably felt that he had made a loss, so he had a gloomy face.
Qianyue thought for a moment and asked, "Do you need a psychotropic?"
"You're selling this?!" The stall owner almost thought he had misheard and asked nervously, "How... do you sell it? How much?"
Qianyue casually quoted a price: "Eight pieces of bread for one bottle, two bottles in total."
Stall owner: “!!!”
This guy, he did it on purpose!
But psychotropic substances are hard to come by. If you miss out, you don’t know if you can buy them again in the future...
The man gritted his teeth and said, "Ten pieces of bread, two bottles."
Qianyue said indifferently: "Forget it."
“Buy, buy, buy!”
The man looked embarrassed. "Your price is really too high. I might not be able to sell it to others. Since we are so destined to each other, can you give me a lower price?"
He paused and said, "Eight loaves of bread, four servings of Isatis root, and I have a piece of news for you."
This price was actually exactly what Qianyue was looking for. However, since the other party was willing to give her a piece of information as a bonus, Qianyue naturally accepted it.
"make a deal."
After the two exchanged items, the man said, "I heard that some of the NPCs in this game are quite intelligent, comparable to real people, and you can cultivate your favorability. If you're lucky, you can even bargain."
"It would be even better if I could get access to the main quest, so I can clear it early. But I've only heard about the quest, so I can't guarantee it's real."
Qianyue immediately thought of her own professional attributes: default NPC favorability +30%.
So this is how it is used?
"Thanks, that's very useful."
The stall owner chuckled and said, "My name is Yu Chengyi. We hope to continue our cooperation in the future."
"Qianyue."
After the two separated, Qianyue was eager to put her 30% favorability into practice. Then, she looked up and saw Duobao Merchant, who hadn't had time to leave yet.
Qianyue was so busy squeezing in to buy things that she didn't have time to take a good look at what the other person looked like. Now that everyone had left, she realized that the other person was actually a handsome young man.
Qianyue's eyes suddenly lit up!
Young man, it’s you!
